Stunning little gem of a place. The best cream tea ever. Warm freshly made scones served with fruity strawberry jam and Roddis clotted cream. Simply the best we've ever tasted. Fabulous menu choice where everything is Homemade. Please do visit. Fantastic views and served with a friendly smile. Definitely a place not to miss.

Fantastic little stop, recommended for a refreshing drink and generous slice of carrot cake! The lovely owner also provided our dog a couple of doggie treats. Water in bowls available too. If you're walking the south west coastal path make sure to rest here a while. Will definitely return.

We stopped here on the way back from walking to Stepper Point - having seen the signs on the way there. Sitting in the sun with a cream tea (with scones fresh out of the oven) and stunning views over the estuary - what more could you want? Heaven! The owner was also lovely - so friendly and welcoming. We will definitely be back!

What a brilliant little place! Me and my wife came across Rest a While by chance and have ended up having the best cream tea ever - and we’ve had plenty!! We arrived just as the scones had come out the oven and the view alone is worth the visit. The service was quick and friendly and a bonus that dogs are welcome! 100% would recommend to anyone who is fortunate to stumble across Rest a While.

Absolutely LOVELY place to stop off on a walk. Well worth the little detour we took to get there. The most incredible views over the bay, super friendly and welcoming staff, and gorgeous food and cakes 😊 We would definitely come back here again! Please note, there are no toilets on site (but a nearby path to have a cheeky wee! 🤭)

Recommend walking the trail from Padstow, round the bay, to Rest a While Tea Garden. The sweet and savoury scones were amazing! Lady serving was extremely friendly and funny - would highly recommend especially with the view overlooking Daymer and Polzeath in the distance.
